Abstract: A hand orthosis for bending and/or stretching at least one finger of a patient's hand, comprising a force-introducing device fastened to a splint, which is coupled with at least one finger segment paired with the finger of the patient's hand, wherein the at least one finger segment comprises a plurality of modular members interconnected in an articulated manner. The modular members each have at least one bayonet link on a first front side and at least one bayonet hook, corresponding to the bayonet link, on a second front side for the formation of a bayonet connection between adjacent modular members providing a bayonet joint. In addition, the invention relates to a modular member for using in a hand orthosis and a method of producing a hand orthosis.

Abstract: A method for producing a hand orthosis, including the steps of: Producing an impression of at least one finger of a patient's hand and at least a part of a forearm, producing a finger section from a reproduction based on the impression, incorporating at least one finger segment in the finger section side corresponding to the hand surface, detecting the physiology of the patient's forearm using at least one captured image from the reproduction together with the finger section, thereby producing a digital 3D model, generating a rail based on the produced digital 3D model, securing at least one force-introducer onto or into the rail, securing a proximal end of the at least one finger segment to a distal end of the rail, and coupling the at least one force-introducer to the at least one finger segment. A hand orthosis is also provided.
